A. At the December 8, 2005 meeting of the Faculty Senate, Vice Chairperson Martin moved approval of the following recommendation of the Executive Committee:

4.69 The University College and General Education Committee shall be responsible for the assessment of General Education student learning outcomes. The UCGE Committee shall appoint a subcommittee on General Education Assessment which includes faculty members who have interest and expertise in assessment of learning outcomes and faculty who represent the General Education core areas, as well as representatives from the UCGE committee. This subcommittee shall develop a process and be responsible for assessing General Education learning outcomes on a continuing basis. The subcommittee shall report at least once each semester to the University College and General Education Committee. The UCGE Committee will forward subsequent recommendations to the Faculty Senate for approval.

Since changes to the Faculty Senate By-Laws may not be voted upon at the meeting they are first introduced the motion is returned to the Faculty Senate.

B. The Report of the Ad Hoc Committee on Graduate Education and Research appeared on pages 34-35 of the Agenda for the December 8, 2005 meeting of the Faculty Senate. Since technical difficulties made it impossible for Professor Rodgers to present the details of the report, it is returned to the Faculty Senate at this time.
